MD 470 was constructed as a gravel road in three sections in the early 1930s. The first section was constructed from Avenue to just north of Canoe Neck Creek starting in 1930. That first section and the second section from Canoe Neck Creek through Oakley to south of Tomakokin Creek were completed by 1933. The final section north to Dynard was started in 1934 and completed in 1935. Aside from widening and paving, MD 470 has changed very little from when it was first constructed. ==Junction list==
